They are already retooling for 992 and this is high priority not some small run GT car. Also they have literally run out of the Mag wheels and its questionable if any (or less than 5% of all RS's) will get the Mag wheel. 2Rs production which is on same line took (is taking) longer than thought and uses many of the same components. And there is coming new Euro emissions (particulate). Porsche planned the .2 long ago but didn't really plan 3 GT cars hitting at the same time (GT3, RS, and 2RS). Only time will tell but it will be very limited.

Numbers have been discussed ad nauseum. The car will be built along side the 992. PAG has built 5 GT (3, 3rs, R, 4 and spyder) cars at the same time (if you consider the spyder a GT car). If previous behavior is an indicator for the future I suspect at the very least that bonus allocations will arrive later this year and/or early next year.

This will not be more exclusive than the 991 units of the R. Recall that some dealers revived 8 units. Let us surmise that each dealer of the 189 dealers received 2 units. That totals to 378 units for the US. I find it very difficult to believe the rest of the world received a mere 600 units. Your dealer is FOS.

Well stated. I can only attribute that statement being the dealer's own marketing strategy, to start driving the ADM north of the hemisphere.

No offense, but a lot of the people on here that are getting .2 3rs allocations, would not be getting allocations if it was a 1k ww production car (including me).

Wish people could be less spiteful on this forum. Anyway, for the first batch of cars without particulate filter, his dealer is pretty much spot on...and I assume that is what he meant. For the 2nd batch, the numbers will be higher. And most of you are receiving allocations from the 2nd batch.

Yup. I'm patiently waiting for the 2nd or late batch of allocations.... if it comes, it comes. Heard from PCNA that there "will likely be further allocations" for calendar year early-2019 build schedules... and again due to the delay of Magnesium wheels availability.

Anyone with a post September allocation is 2nd production batch with particulate filter.

No spite intended to anyone but the misinformation needs to stop being propagated. This is only fuel for ADM. The car will not be unlimited and there will be more than 1,000 units world wide. There were 1500 997.2 RS's and the economy was ****. The markets are better and PAG will cash in. There will be more like the .1RS.

If misinformation needs to stop being propagated then the only accurate statement is that no one actually knows how many are going to be built.

True, but under 1,000 units worldwide? Come on, that's dealership BS 101

Agreed.

Dealers also don't know how many will be built.
